Why can't you just put it on the floor is my question...

5-second rule. Duh.

5 second rule's been disproven.

The joke -------->









Your head -------->

The fact that a joke that fails to make any sense whatsoever is about as funny as a description of a mundane daily routine -------->









Your head -------->

Don't worry, I smirked mirthfully at the 5-second rule joke.

Don't worry, I smirked mirthfully at the 5-second rule joke.

As did I.

I want to make a pit full of spikes and cakes and then have my plantperson (or whatever they're called) build a house on stilts above it.

I expect a big announcement next monday regarding beta release date and major hurdles.

I expect a big announcement next monday regarding beta release date and major hurdles.

Oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy. 

I'm still expecting it to come out on the same day as Shadowrun Returns.

I expect a big announcement next monday regarding beta release date and major hurdles.

If that means "beta's been pushed back due to major hurdles" I will be very disappoint.

[hemmingjay]

I think you will both be ok. FOr one, they can't push back the beta when they haven't ever stated a timeframe. It's also not ready for beta.

[ollobrains]

Beta has been pushed back 2 months ( speculation) im having a each way bet on if x3 rebirth or starbound will come out first

So here's a news thing/tinfoil hat fuel/something or other.

http://insomniagamingfestival.com/whatson/whats-on-minecraft/

Short version: Chucklefish guys will be at that festival and Yogscast is doing a live let's play on stage. Event is August 23-26.

I lurk/VERY infrequently post on the Chucklefish forums, and Tiy's response to the "But I deserve firsties!" whines on the forums is basically: The game will be done when we feel it's awesome enough to be done. If that's earlier, then Insomnia will be the public unveil. If it's later, it'll be a preview.

*shrug* It's a date and a confirmed thing, so... there you go.

This sort of jives with what I have been hearing as well as my own speculation. Release around late Sept/mid October with beta beginning in July-ish. Their publishing efforts have taken the financial pressure off of them a bit, so there is no need to rush. I see all of this as a good thing as long as they don't get carried away with tweaking it too much.

[forsaken1111]

tbh I don't care when they release it so long as its amazing. If they need to delay it to make it amazing, they should.

[hemmingjay]

I don't think the delay(not even really a delay) is due to making it awesome. It's just that they are still adding stuff. This game has just a staggering amount of stuff in it and they keep adding more as they think of it. If the game ends up being a sandbox then that is great. If it is more linear in it's gameplay it could actually be a weakness to have so much random stuff. I am very excited but in no hurry to see this.

[forsaken1111]

I dunno, stuff is pretty awesome. Games with no stuff are decidedly not awesome.

[Levi]

Hey, if Beta isn't until July then I've probably got time to play some longer games then...
